Do you enjoy storms?

Typically, because of the area I live in, I despise snowstorms. It means more of that yucky white mess that we're already subjected to for far too long here, I just keep praying it'll melt soon. However, I LOVE spring and summer storms, especially because they're often brought on by a particularly warm day. Thunder crashing, lightning crackling, the rain soaking the parched ground and flower beds.. it's heaven. My dog runs and hides under my computer desk as soon as the wind kicks up, signifying a downpour, but I make it up to her afterwards when we go for a walk in the slight drizzle and enjoy the smell of fresh rain.

Our place here in the Philippines has an occasional thunderstorm but nothing of that destructive one.

I love storms. I live near mountains and to watch a storm raging over them and feel the energy is so invigorating. We are lucky that our storms are not too severe, so I do feel for people who's homes and lives are affected in other countries.

I love rain storms with thunder and lightning, and I often sit in the garage with the doors open watching the clouds rolling in. It can be a real show. They are best on a warm and sunny afternoon that suddenly turns rainy. Tornado season is coming up here, and I don't like that much. I live within miles of where a tornado wiped out a lot of houses a few years ago. I'm always checking the weather just in case I have to dive for the basement.

It have been two years since I saw last snow. I wish there is a snow this year.

i do enjoy rains sometimes but not storm, they're too scary and very disastrous especially to those location that it really storms a lot. so i dont enjoy having storm even it means no need to go to work. hehehe.

I love all kinds of storms actually although we've never gotten a snowstorm here. We usually get thunderstorms with the wind going fast. I also like it when it rains really really hard, but of course only if I'm inside.
